    [CQ] konica 8031 trouble

    Short post, using mobile app.
    Already replaced belt and imaging units. Problem occurs first time in the morning.
    Any hints?

    i've never worked on this machine, is it the equivilent of the minolta CF3102 ?

    IF SO, the transfer belt cleaning blade has failed and gone hard - when its cold its not cleaning the stabilization patterns off the belt.

    this is an old engine, and i bet the new belts in stock for it are pretty old too, last time i checked the cleaning section/blade was not available separately. Perhaps it can be obtained in the after market ?

      PerthKMTECH is right on this one. the only other solution is to take this machine to the back 40 and hit it with a big truck.
      I have had my experience with this model, thanking my lucky stars that the last one is gone from the field.

        I used to have one of these machines, with fiery at home, the print quality was astonishing for its time and is still hard to beat on a well looked after machine, the c350 was a step backwards in my opinion print quality wise, but much better in every other regard.

        Even mine ended up being rolled outside and left in the rain when i moved last year. To this date its still sitting out there last time i checked
